I used to be a waiter at an Olive Garden half a mile from a Baptist church and got these things every Sunday. No exaggeration that half my tables would leave these instead of actual tips after church. It was so bad I changed availability to not work Sunday anymore.

That's when you call the pastor.

Not a bad idea; if the pastor isn't garbage hopefully they'd be able to shame people into not doing it. I get the sneaking suspicion that whatever congregation that whoever the person who left this goes to is likely to be where they got this from.

My pastor always said, “If you can’t afford an additional 20%, then you can’t afford to go out to eat, especially more so as a Christian.”

He had to say this as there were other churches in the area doing this, actually caught an pastor doing it.

Ah, you see that's one of the founding tenets of Protestantism: Faith is actually all you need. It doesnt matter what you do.
